The setting up of rotas and initially not having the ability to make manual changes to holiday allowances when an employee leaves.

Avantages

User-Friendly Interface
Mobile Accessibility
Customizable Absence Types

Inconvénients

1. The interface is user-friendly but it would be good to have a separate field where managers would see pending approvals, not in the Ring notification tab which is very small and almost invisible and contains other notifictions as well.
2. No possibility to export the leaves as an excel file.

Avantages

Easy to use for employee and employers
Now better there is an app also to use
Quick to use and navigates quickly between pages

That it doesn't go back through the years like the old system used to- you can only view last year, current year and next year.

The way in which to 'switch on' certain features isn't always done in the most obvious way, which is made up for by [sensitive content hidden] who will always give speedy responses to help out with functionalities

Avantages

The reports require a bit of user manipulation to get them where you want them to be, that said this isn't difficult to do.

Inconvénients

Isn't easy to navigate. Sometimes the how to guide takes you to places that i didn't have set up and didn't show the alternative route

Avantages

Setting up the spreadsheet for the data upload was straight forward and a "once only" taskYou then have all relevant information in one place

Inconvénients

I would like support to be immediate, but who doesn't want thatHowever, you can mark it up from critical (system issues) to not so critical, and they do have a number of training seminars that you can access later and FAQ's

Inconvénients

Custom specific workflow - hope we can pull a report of the users approver

Avantages

My favorite part is that the system is chasing people for the back to work form after a sick leave

Inconvénients

Creating reports is not that straight forward sometimes

Avantages

Ease of use, useful app, easy request and approval process, quick view of holiday year and any absences, excellent reports!

Inconvénients

Really tried hard to think about something and I could not find anything. Perhaps it would have to be an app, but as we work in an office environment - we are using the web link and no one has any problem with it.

Avantages

The flexibility to adapt to local country nuances (such as Netherlands, Belgium, France, Hungary) these are very complex in their legislative requirements however working with Edays and the development team (shout out to Harry Warren) - we are all set up and are working brilliantly

Inconvénients

Tenure rules and rolling absence tracking

Avantages

- it is so easy to use- the front layout is nice and the back admin layout is not hard to use- the customer service portal is great, along with the information hub, which I use regularly- that there is a mobile app, so we can check edays on the go- importing entitlement is easy to use- there are webinars to help

- perhaps the interface could look a little bit more modernised? just a suggestion

complex rota set up and system changing it in the new calendar year so I had to fix it again.

Alternatives envisagées 

Pourquoi choisir edays 

Logiciel antérieur 

Pourquoi passer à edays

Avantages

Its flexible and adaptive attributes make it so versatile and yet its simplicity is a real strength. It never breaks or goes wrong!

Inconvénients

There is nothing we would consider requiring improvement

Avantages

That you can track, run reports and monitor all types of absence and that is provides in graph format and numerical

Inconvénients

The user guide is not always clear and you cannot always find answers online to your questions.

Avantages

The fact that you can split up your company into teams and filter the absences. You can also filter through many different type of absences, such as annual leave, extra holidays, unpaid or sick days etc. requests go through but only approved by management and you can get a clear picture of the entire company.

Inconvénients

I haven’t found an app to this software yet but it would really be helpful if there was as it makes processes easier.

Avantages

It is a great tool for keeping track of all absences and attendance in one place. We use it for recording, monitoring and reporting. All staff use it no matter what their role is.

Inconvénients

It's sometimes difficult to get what's need from a single report and it becomes necessary to run additional ones in order to draw comparisons.

Avantages

I really like the system, super easy to use and think that everything is tidy.

Inconvénients

I would like the colours of the absence's to be different.

Avantages

Easy to book, simple and quick. User friendly

Inconvénients

As an Admin using the background panel can be a little tricky to navigate

Avantages

Very easy to use and covers most features needed

Inconvénients

It creates a lot of issues when a group of different companies in different countries share the same portal/platform as the different local settings very frequently impacts other settings in the system. E.g. when a setting on the German template is changed, something suddenly changes on the Danish settings e.g. the German absence types appear on Danish users dashboard.

Avantages

Easy to see how many of the team have booked holiday and how much they have left, easy to authorise with two people and great for adding sick days manually.

Inconvénients

If the alternative authoriser to the primary authoriser could also get email notifications when someone puts in a holiday request that would be perfect for when my manager is away.

Avantages

The product is easy to use for all from users to administrators. The set up was also easy with great support from the days team.

Inconvénients

We don't have any issues with edays - it works really well.

Avantages

The simple book time off feature that stands out when first accessing the e-days homepage is a key feature for users to quickly book in holiday or their planning for the week/month in advance.

Inconvénients

Occasional long loading times when submitting leave and the loading of the group calendar when trying to view all users calendar for the month.

Avantages

Complete absence management - it does it all!

Inconvénients

Improved Outlook individual calendar integration would be good

Avantages

Lots of features available , user friendly and very good customer support.

There could be lots of improvements in terms of specific features to improve customer experience , but usually the customers recommendation join a roadmap to be delivered.

Avantages

The easy to use features and also the layout.

Inconvénients

No I don think I can think of any feature to be improved.

Avantages

comfortable for hr managers (can rate my own user experience only)

Inconvénients

changing features/design is least liked about this software as employees get lost

Avantages

e-days gives accurate accounts of daily/weekly/annually of staff absence, whether planned or unplanned.
It allows me as an Administrator the ability to add and/or remove information appropriately associated with our company.

Entering/amend new staff can be quite time consuming.

Avantages

Ease of use, The report building, also the ease of use for all staff on the mobile version of the webpage

Inconvénients

Nothing this software ticked all our boxes and was just what we wanted

Avantages

It is easy to use, but so efficient and has really helped us in all aspects of the business. I would highly recommend - it beats a wall chart any day.

Inconvénients

Not applicable there is nothing I can think of that I do not like.

Avantages

This software is very user friendly and intuitive. The ability to easily record and track time and attendance is helpful

Inconvénients

I do find the reporting function is not as intuitive. When trying to run a report for the first time it is sometime difficult to select the correct filters

Avantages

It takes a process that needs to be done and does it well. It's a simple tool that managed absences

Inconvénients

The version we are on (admittedly we have not migrated) does not have great connectivity to other services. Having seen a demo of the new version, this is fully resolved.

Avantages

Easy to see team by team who is away, and reporting on leave

Inconvénients

It is very clever and therefore can be difficult to manipulate to achieve the desired results

Avantages

This tool helps me to report time submission easily. This report is mandatory in my country
Also I have the absences in reporting.

Inconvénients

At first I did not like to raise a ticket on line because I like personal contact.
Now I am happy with this anyway :-)

Avantages

It’s so user friendly. A great tool to make admin a lot easier

Inconvénients

Nothing its great, we honestly cannot fault it

Avantages

Inconvénients

I'm very happy with it. It works very well.

Avantages

Very easy to use as a Manager and User. Very flexible and can set up as many teams with all sorts of different rules. Great reports.

Inconvénients

Sometimes doesn't automate simple things but this may be more my lack of technological no how!

Avantages

We use this far more than just a holiday and sickness tracker. Our staff travel extensively and we use edays as a group planner that shows the meetings and travel that we all undertake. It give a great overview of our staff's whereabouts at any given time.

Inconvénients

Difficult to answer here as overall we are very happy with the system and what it provides for us.
